^22 OTOZAMITES. 



0. Masmlongianus ' is specifically identical with 0. Feistmanteli, 

 but the latter name has heen adopted on account of the more 

 striking agreement of the specimens so named by Zigno with the 

 English examples. 



Some of the smaller fronds of Oto%amites Molmianus'' may be 

 compared also with 0. Feistmanteli, as well as with 0. parallelus. 

 One or two of the specimens from Italy figured as Otommites 

 veronensis, Zigno,' are also very similar to 0. Feistmanteli . 



The Indian Cycadean leaves named by Oldham & Morris 

 Pdlceommia hengalensis * are practically indistinguishable from 

 0. Feistmanteli. 



The frond described by Kurr from a German locality as Zamites 

 MandelsloM^ is closely allied to, i£ not identical with, Otozamites 

 Feistmanteli. Another example of a similar type of leaf is afforded 

 by 0. Reglei as figured by Saporta.' These two species are com- 

 pared by Lignier with a similar type of Otozamites {0. or assif alius), 

 which he has described from a liias locality in Normandy.' 



The Tork specimen of Otozamites Feistmanteli has a length 

 of 22 cm.; the pinnae vary in length from 8 mm. to 1-4 cm., 

 having an average breadth of 6 mm. The example in the Leeds 

 Museum represents a smaller frond, bearing pionse about 8 mm. long. 



V. 3683. This is the only specimen ia the British Museum 

 which appears to be identical with Zigno's species ; it is 6 cm. long 

 and 1 cm. in breadth, bearing short, broad, and closely set pinnae.
